re: Most overrated Band in history? The correct answer is Nirvana.

Disagree. Nirvana being a mere trio had such a big sound and gave way to a completely new style of rock. Kurt Cobain's passion was contagious. Dave Grohl's songwriting is out of this world. Such a distinct sound.

Some of their big hits are super overrated but they're a really deep musical group.

You should listen to some of the isolated vocal tracks with Kurt Cobain and Dave Grohl singing harmonies. They are fricking beautiful.

The Who -- outside a few good songs, they're awful. They're the microbrewery who nails a few good beers and starts to think, "hmmm, what if we added strawberry jam and cricket legs to this brew?".

Journey -- garbage, garbage, garbage. Vocals suck. Songs suck. Everything about this band makes me fricking cringe. It's the embodiment of late 70's/early 80's commercialization of rock music to compete with disco. Awful.

Van Halen -- childish rock with strong guitar work. David Lee Roth has one of the most grating voices in rock history.

Fleetwood Mac (version with Stevie Nicks) -- the fact that this band went from a fantastic blues band in the late 60's, to a solid Genesis-lite in the early 70's, to the pop garbage with a bah'ing goat singing over it in the mid-late 70's is a goddamn embarrassment, especially being most people think the latter when they think of Fleetwood Mac.

I’ve mellowed a bit in my hatred of Nirvana over the years. I could not stand them when they hit the public consciousness in 1991. Today, I can appreciate the sea change they represented in rock music. However, out of the group of bands that get lumped together (Nirvana, STP, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden) they are still my least favorite by far.
